I am someone who switches a lot between favourites so I was wondering what people that play longer than I have think about the supports. Got any favourites to play? Preferred support when you play ADC?
Just curious :D

I love playing Nami, she's very rewarding and has a lot of creative ways of being used. As an ADC, I don't mind any support really, it's more their playstyle that affects me.

Their playstyle as in... ? Items, warding or how agressive they play?

An I have tried Nami before but I'm not very useful with her :p

I play everyone but I think I'll have to go with the Yasuo of supports, Brand, as my favourite. I'm not really sure why, it's probably mostly because, well, he's pretty busted and I like having so much impact on the laning phase and later in the game too. I also love his VO, quotes and skins :) The only thing I don't like is that he's really squishy and my games with him are really hit or miss.

When playing ADC I like someone who either has a lot of CC or a lot of damage, so I just have to come in and last hit the champion. So I really like Brand again, Leona, Braum and Thresh as my supports :>

Gotta love my Janna (that new lore though), but I love how dynamic you can be with Nami and Thresh. Always fun to play Bard too, you can be super aggressive in creative ways while also having a chill time collecting chimes and whatnot. As an ADC, Leona can be super thrilling to lane with, provided you're not afraid to go balls deep.

I think both her bio and story are really well-done and definitely worth a read. There's new stuff for Zac, Warwick, and a few others on there, too.

I know everyone expects me to mention my epic 100% win rate Master Yi support, but deep down my favourite is Blitzcrank. For me there's nothing more fun in League than landing those hooks no one ever expected. Myself included. And that's pretty easy for me as I miss them most of the time :^)

As an ADC, I don't really care as long as the player is civilized. I have a hard time dealing with Blitzcranks though, as I get too focused on *their* play.

Right now I'm playing a lot of Brand support. He deals a good bunch of damage.

I used to play Janna the couple of times I got to play support last season. She's very resourceful and I love going fast with a movespeed build.

I also played a lot of Nautilus support back before dynamic queue. I wonder if he's still good though.

And as an adc I only hate having a Thresh support. If they build Relic Shield most of the time they screw up my farm and if they get an Ancient Coin they suck.

I mean I want them to adequate their playstyle to what the lane is in that game with me (as in taking into consideration all 4 laners involved + junglers if possible).

I really prefer it when they play the lane according to what their champ is supposed to do as opposed to doing stupid stuff like overextending as Sona or just staying there passively as Leona. I also feel like many supports don't understand how each ADC is supposed to play in lane, like me picking Sivir and them getting blitz and complaining that I'm always pushing.

This is the reason why I mostly just play Caitlyn nowadays, she's just not very interactive: adapts well to most supports and allows me to just lay there farming, taking opportunities the support creates or getting the **** out if they blotch it completely.
